ASEAN 2016 and beyond: New markets, new bases

ASEAN 2016 and beyond: New markets, new bases builds on a company survey that was conducted in May and June 2016 by the AHK ASEAN and EY, with kind support from the German embassies.

This study focuses on the ASEAN region, and provides insight targeted in particular at German investors, building on an initial study released in April 2015 and the annual business confidence survey by the German chambers in the region. Its findings are based on an analysis of the current reality regarding German FDI into the region as well as a snapshot of perceptions drawn from a survey of 254 German companies.

The respondent base represents a diverse set of 13 industries, including automotive, chemicals and pharmaceuticals, engineering, extractives, consulting, and other services. About nine in ten (88%) respondents that participated currently have operations in the ASEAN region. All respondents occupy senior management roles. Company sizes vary widely: 31% are from organizations with less than €50m in annual revenue while, at the other extreme, 34% are from organizations with more than €1.5bn in revenue. (Note: due to rounding, not all charts may total 100.)
